Well, this time I wanted to create a kind of tribute and parody.

My initial idea for the "Growing" theme was about creating multiple sprites for different games: backgrounds, characters clothes and weapons... but since yesterday I was sick I had to sacrifice most of the graphics.

Anyways I managed to create an interesting prototype so I hope you enjoy this simple tap game! :D

IMPORTANT: Audio not working in Internet Explorer

Parodied games: Dragon Quest, Prince of Persia, The Legend of Zelda, Star Wars, Final Fantasy VII and special mention to Super Smash Bros ;)

EDIT: About the copyrighted MIDI material. I'm using a little part of songs (about 30 seconds), just to parody the referenced games (my favorites). I also think that since LD is a self-educative public competition, in this case is under fair use.
